Murder investigation in UK after 39 people found dead in lorry container A LORRY CONTAINER carrying 39 dead bodies has been discovered in Essex in the United Kingdom. A 25-year-old-man from Northern Ireland has been arrested on suspicion of murder following the discovery. Essex Police say they were called to the scene at Waterglade Industrial Park, Eastern Avenue, Grays by the ambulance service at 1.40 am this morning. Emergency services were also present but the 39 people were pronounced dead at the scene. Police say early indications suggest that 38 of the dead are adults and one is aged in their teens. “This is a tragic incident where a large number of people have lost their lives. Our enquiries are ongoing to establish what has happened,” Chief Superintendent Andrew Mariner said this morning. “We have arrested the lorry driver in connection with the incident who remains in police custody as our enquiries continue,” Mariner added. A cordon remains closed in the area and the business park remains closed. Holyhead is regularly used as a port accepting vessels that have travelled from Ireland but police have not yet said if this is the case in this instance. Essex Police are due to provide a further update on the investigation at about 11.30 am this morning. Seamus Leheny, Northern Ireland policy manager for the Freight Transport Association told BBC News that if the lorry had come from Bulgaria, getting into Britain via Holyhead was an “unorthodox route”. He said: “People have been saying that security and checks have been increased at places like Dover and Calais, so it might be seen as an easier way to get in by going from Cherbourg or Roscoff, over to Rosslare, then up the road to Dublin. “It’s a long way around and it’ll add an extra day to the journey.” Paige Wade, who was driving past the industrial park at 4.15am, told the PA news agency that there was a lot of police activity at the scene this morning. “I had just finished work while driving up Motherwell Way and all you could see was blue flashing lights, as I was driving past there was police tape to cordon off the start of Eastern Avenue.

I think an educated guess can figure it out.

Not enough drilled air holes and ventilation, would probably be up there
